Our research interests lie at the intersection of analytical chemistry and chemical biology, with a focus on cancer biology. Cancer is a complex disease, requiring sophisticated and systematic strategies to deliver knowledge that will lead to improved treatment options for patients. Individuals trained in a wide range of scientific topics and possessing a substantial breadth of knowledge are best positioned to tackle this challenge. In the Hummon Research Group, we develop analytical methods to evaluate both the transcriptome and the proteome in cancer cells, while exploring the deregulation in cancer-associated signal transduction pathways.
